i just created a 750 calorie veggie burrito sans cheese, sour cream, and guacamole, of which an actual consumer would get at least one of if not two or three (which pushes it to 1150).

A mcdonalds Big Mac is around 550-600 calories I believe, and could be less if you leave cheese off or neglect to eat the bun -- options which only exist in the same bizarro world where someone leaves cheese and sour cream off their burrito to get it down to a "healthy," "slender" 750 calories.

There is no way Chipotle is a healthier option than a salad, baked potato, normal sized cheese burger, or normal taco at Taco Bell.

Chipotle is some of the highest fat, highest calorie fast food out there. Their veggie burrito is like 1000 calories. I don't do fast food aside from the occasional veggie sub, but someone eating the relatively healthiest options at the other fast good places you listed had to be much better off then someone eating chipotle daily.

The meal I get at chipotle has 530 calories.

If you don't load it up with unhealthy items like a fat ass, it's actually quite healthy.

What are you getting at 530? I'm asking seriously? Are you leaving the tortilla off??

The problem is that you're only focusing on calories, not the quality of the food. You can eat 530 calories of pink slime or 750 in a Chipotle bowl. Which is healthier? What if you factor in daily exercise?

I think you're trading one set of health concerns for another. Of course I'll give you Chipotle is "higher quality" food but a 800-1500 calorie burrito for lunch doesn't constitute a good idea no matter how high-quality the food is.

Yes, exercise is a great idea. Exercise + a sandwich or salad for lunch instead of a huge burrito is an even better idea, that's all I'm getting at.

It's all a matter of scale, I guess. I run 5x per week, and burn 1,000 - 3,000 calories each time. I'm better off eating high quality food until I'm satisfied. I also understand that not everybody is in the same situation.

I'm thinking gose, at half the ABV/calories, is going to be my go to style instead of DIPA.

Just got a sixer of Off Color Troublesome (one of the brewers is the former barrel guy at Goose Island), which may be the only gose/berlinerweisse to come in a six pack (?). If it's good, I hope they continue to ship to our market and this wasn't just a one off.

There is an insane amount of salt in Taco Bell food. I would never eat it. At least Chipotle tastes good. I don't put cheese or sour cream on my chipotle burrito but I realize it is not the healthiest option. 750 calories isn't that much if you have a light breakfeast.

If you must know, I avoid dairy-based ingredients, and get guac instead of beans. 5'11", 158 lbs.
